About Pork bits
Pork Bits are small, flavorful pieces of pork often made from cuts like shoulder or belly. While traditionally associated with Southern and soul food cuisines, similar preparations can be found in various global dishes, such as Filipino "adobo" or Chinese-style stir-fried pork. Pork Bits are typically seasoned with a mix of spices and herbs, offering a savory, umami-packed taste. Nutritionally, they provide high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals such as zinc and iron. However, they can be high in fat, especially saturated fat, depending on the cut used, and sodium levels may increase with heavy seasoning or curing. For a healthier option, leaner cuts of pork can be used, and excessive salt can be avoided. Pork Bits are a versatile ingredient, great for adding hearty flavor to stir-fries, salads, or rice dishes, but should be enjoyed in moderation within a balanced diet.
